Kilauea volcano’s lava lake is now draining. This event is occurring in addition to the Pu’u O’o crater collapsing and releasing its magma into nearby Hawaiian subdivisions.

A new fissure has formed to the East of Pu’u’ O’o, and the magma from Kilauea is now added into the mix.
There is going to be an extended large lava flow coming not only from Pu’u O’o’s collapse, but now the draining of Kilaueas magma chamber is something which may increase flow amounts + duration.
The two volcanoes are connected to each other deep below, and are several miles apart.
